Night once again enveloped the Mo Family Fort.
After the bustle of the day, the Mo Family Fort seemed even quieter.
The vast Mo Family Fort lay dormant in the heart of Yancheng, like a monstrous beast, seeking its prey.
"Patriarch, matters concerning the alliance are now in your hands. Nalan Yanran and I will travel to Yunlan Mountain early tomorrow morning..."
In the study, only Patriarch Mo Lan and the newly appointed Great Elder, Mo Tang,
remained. Hearing Mo Tang's words, Mo Lan agreed without hesitation.
The latter understood that while the Mo Alliance was important to the Mo Family, the Yunlan Sect, thousands of miles away, was far more important.
"I've prepared the gifts for the Yunlan Sect. Great Elder, you should take them with you when you depart tomorrow,"
Mo Lan said gravely, handing over a storage ring.
"Whether the Mo Family can seize this opportunity to soar to new heights depends entirely on you, Great Elder!"
These words were profound.
It could be said that this was Mo Tang's first test since taking office!
If he could successfully restore the Mo Clan's respectability within the Yunlan Sect, his influence within the clan would rival that of Mo Cheng's.
Mo Tang simply smiled confidently.
"Master, don't worry, leave it to me!"
If you knew I was nearly the leader of the Yunlan Sect, you scumbags would be on your knees, calling me "Daddy!
" Taking over the position of Grand Elder would bring Mo Tang far more benefits than just a title...
Mo Cheng had amassed countless valuable resources from the Mo Clan over his years of control. While researching the transplant technique expended considerable resources, the remaining resources were still staggering!
After his death, while the Grand Elder's lineage did have descendants, these assets didn't technically belong to him, so Mo Tang acquired them all.
While this infuriated the Grand Elder's lineage, they were completely helpless against Mo Tang's current situation.
The moment Mo Cheng died and Mo Tang ascended to power, more than half of the family's senior members, previously dependent on the Great Elder, flocked to join him...
Even the Second Elder, the Great Elder's confidant and staunch supporter, the gray-haired old man who had previously scolded Mo Tang, was among them.
Perhaps he feared a future retribution from Mo Tang, but his allegiance was so enthusiastic and thorough.
He even uncovered several of the Great Elder's secret treasure troves, earning the Great Elder's followers near-death hatred.
Mo Tang was naturally pleased to see this happen.
Having just ascended to power, he couldn't make any major moves at this point. And with someone willing to step in and act as a pawn in his hand, he naturally wouldn't refuse. He
returned to his new courtyard.
It's undeniable that the Great Elder of the Mo Family still holds immense power. This courtyard, for example, encompasses one-fifth of the entire Mo Family Fort, larger than the Patriarch's!
However, Mo Tang was originally from a side branch, and he was the only one left in the family. So, besides him, this vast courtyard now had no other owner...
Looking at the ownerless ring in his hand, Mo Tang could easily inspect its contents.
"Tsk tsk, it looks like Mo Lan has really splashed out this time!"
A rough estimate revealed that the ring's contents were worth no less than ten million! The
gold coins alone piled up like a small mountain, estimated to be around five or six million.
Other items included precious minerals, forged rare weapons, and even various martial arts techniques and elixir recipes...
Mo Tang was somewhat disappointed by the limited supply of medicinal herbs and elixirs.
This was no surprise.
After all, these were destined for the Yunlan Sect. With the presence of the Pill King Gu He, the Yunlan Sect had no shortage of elixirs.
Furthermore, the highest-ranking alchemist currently employed by the Mo Clan was only a second-grade one. Do you think the Yunlan Sect would value the elixirs crafted by someone of that caliber?
As for the medicinal herbs, needless to say, the Yunlan Sect had no shortage of low-grade ones, and they wouldn't even consider them. Therefore, it was impossible for the patriarch, Mo Lan, to take out those things to make up the numbers.
As for those rare medicinal herbs, regardless of whether he was willing to give them up or not, even if he wanted to, it would be extremely difficult to obtain them
... As mentioned before, never compare the Mo family with places like the Black Horn Domain and Canaan Academy. Even if Mo Tang obtained most of the Great Elder's treasures, he didn't find many medicinal herbs with a system evaluation of more than three grades...
Although he made a lot of money, it was still not easy to convert it into energy.
However, it just so happened that he was going to Yunlan Mountain this time, and he could also go to the imperial capital at that time. As the largest city in the entire Jia Ma Empire and the most prosperous city in commerce, he should be able to buy a lot of good things!
After putting away the ring, Mo Tang opened his system again.

Low Rank: 230 + 5840 = 6070;
Intermediate Rank: 246 + 1754 = 2000
; Advanced Rank: 50,000

Two thousand intermediate energy points would have just about elevated Mo Tang to a five-star Dou Ling.
Although the ring Mo Lan had given him contained enough herbs to reach the one or two hundred energy points, Mo Tang chose not to do so.
He was already wealthy, with tens of millions of gold coins. Once he reached the imperial capital, was there any reason to worry about not being able to buy precious herbs or high-quality elixirs?
Those gifts are related to the future of the Mo family. Even if Mo Tang is confident that his relationship with Yun Yun will make her make a choice that is beneficial to him...
but the Yunlan Sect is not Yun Yun's alone after all. There are also those elders, and behind him is the old sect master who has been in seclusion...
So, Mo Tang needs to come up with enough chips to let Yun Yun shut certain people's mouths.
This is also what Mo Tang must do.
However, looking at such a huge amount of low-level energy in his hand, Mo Tang was a little troubled.
"These energies are not enough to improve my cultivation. It seems that I can only use them to improve my fighting skills."
Anyway, with the system and energy, practicing fighting skills is as easy as eating and drinking water for him.
This time, he also got a lot of skills and fighting skills that reached the Xuan level from the hands of the elder. In addition to some fighting skills with special fighting spirit attribute requirements, there are still many that can be practiced by Mo Tang...
